Thank you so much for putting this video together! I was having the hardest time trying to wade through all of their brushes and figure out what I needed and this was very helpful!
I agree real technique brushes are amazing for the price. I have the essential base set but Instead of the square found brush I have the flat foundation brush also have the blush brush ,the sculpting brush and the powder brush from the metal line
I have been using the SAME deluxe crease brush to set my eye primer w/bone color shadow for yrs. I press it in. It works better than any other brush I've ever tried.
I love my RT paddle brushes: Foundation and small shadow. I don't care for sponges but the paddle does a great job blending liquid foundation. The small shadow brush is xlnt for the outer corner as well as lid, and crease too if I'm not feeling dramatic.
Very helpful. So far my favorite RT brushes are the Expert Face brush for foundation, the base shadow brush for cream eyeshadow, the detail small angled brush for shadow liner, the buffing brush for pressed powder and the blush brush is ok for bronzer. I love the multitasking face brush for blotting and to blend face powders.
I've had the buffing brush and contour brush from the old core collection for about 7 years and they still work like new along with my domed shadow brush and Multitask face brush from the Travel Essentials set I bought at the same time. I just got the Everyday Essentials and the Enhanced eyes set BoGo free on the Ulta site. I don't use sponges but that was a nice bonus to try out and all the RT brushes I've been wanting, the blush brush is less dense than I thought it would be but I used it for the first time yesterday and really like it bc the fluffiness makes it blend blush nicely w/o depositing too much color. I also love the setting brush for highlighter and I think the expert face brush will work well for contour. I've never used cream contour but I can imagine it being great for that. ☺
Very thorough review, thank you. I love their products. I used to swear by the beauty blender sponge, even after trying the RT version. Until two weeks ago, I decided to try the RT sponge again, omg! I love it more than the beauty blender now! I even went out and bought a couple of back ups! Lol! Although I am always mixing it up with how I apply my foundation, be it brush or sponge, I tend to also use the brush you mentioned! 🥰
This is super helpful! I thought I was imagining that the brushes differed!!! Also, I use the deluxe crease brush, clean and in my crease to buff things out if I’ve gone overboard on shadows. Thank you, Bailey!!!
I just got that face set for free, ulta was having a great deal but one real techniques set get one free. I went to get new eye brushes and come out with both for 20 dollars.
Same! I added the Everyday Essentials set to my cart first which was $19.99 then the Enhanced Eyes set which was on sale for $14.99. I thought I would be charged $19.99 for both with the BoGo but they actually only charged me for the eye set so I paid $14.99 for both sets!
I use RT brushes for my face and cream eyeshadows. For powder eyeshadow I far prefer my Eco Tools brushes, Japonesque and Morphe brushes. The RT brushes tend to be very large and imprecise, which is unsuited for my small, hooded eyes. I end up using most of them as blending brushes because they are so big.
Hi me too but I must admit I bought all additions , I am addicted to the collections I have three sets of limited additions plus the basics , they are gorgeous I love them , I have started buying my niece her own collection , the setting brushes are fab I have three of those too ! I did say I was addicted ! The smaller brush I use it for concealer it’s really good !
My favorite of their eye brushes is the all purpose crease brush that comes in the set. For my eye shape, I use it in the crease and on the lid; basically, I can do an entire eye look with just that one brush. I also like the detailer brush for applying shadow as liner. I love both the setting brush and the contour brushes, but I can't get the blush brush to work for me. It's too soft or fluffy or something. Plus, I have kind of a small face, and it's just too big to apply blush for me. Works better as a face powder brush, but it's not my favorite for that either.
I’m going to buy the eye kit and the buffer brush kit I have brought a bronzer brush eye duo and sponge I love them so will invest in those other kits as I want 2 sets of eye brushes for light and dark make it easier x
Thank you, Bailey! I saw Nadine Blaggott do a video and she raved over the Powder Bleu brushes, too. I've seen your previous vid featuring them, and I'm going to pull the trigger finally...♥️
@@BaileyB Bailey, did you happen to see Nic's video today on the launch of two new brushes from Real Techniques - one for face and body, and one for foundation. I am definitely intrigued....Would love for you to review them!
I love those blue RT brushes but never saw them at Ulta or on Amazon. Are they still available? I still use all my original series from the basic sets from 10 years ago. I love the blush brush & use it everyday for bronzer.
I think that its awesome that they are affordable and widely available but I have smaller, hooded eyes. I do think the precision eye brush would work for me. Its a hit or miss if the other brushes in the eye set would be useful for me. Have not seen the precision brush sold alone.
I noticed that Baily's RT brushes have numbers - RT400, RT304, etc. None of mine have numbers. Just curious if there is a difference. I have quite a few, some from sets, some individuals.
I absolutely love the quality of the brushes but I find that the original brush line with the purple, pink or orange handles are often way to big for me. The blush brush is my big powder brush and all of their eye brushes just drown my eyes in color. So the better brush lines from them for me and my needs are the ones from special collections and the more luxurious collections but those are actually really expensive to me. They price them at €30 which is sigma prices. It's a shame they mostly come out with high end priced brushes these days, except for the basic brushes. They sponge is awesome though.
Hmmm, I wonder if you could use the blush brush to lightly powder, since you can fit it snugly under your eyes. But at the same time it doesn't seem dense enough to press powder into the skin...
I LOVE the buffing brush. It's my ride or die and hate that it is not sold separately and not always in store. I'm not a face of the expert face brush, too dense.
It depends on what you want to use them for! In terms of powder/blush/bronzer, I find the blush brush to be most versatile because of the tapered end (versus the broad, fluffy end of the bigger orange powder brush). I don't think I've tried the Instapop brush!
Thank you! I have a ton of other brushes (Sigma, Morphe, Luxie, etc), but RT is the only brand I have the most experience with across all collections because they’re so affordable. I think they’re a good brand for someone just starting out because of it (plus they’re well made) so thought a video like this might be helpful!
@@BaileyB thank you, this is helpful. Looking to invest in a bunch of brushes at once. I only own 2 eye blending brushes, one from clinique, one from essence, the difference is huge! So it's hard to choose a brand, knowing it does matter so much. A video like this does indeed help! I appreciate you taking time to make it.😍
I love my powder brush w the copper handle. I needed better eye brushes and was referred by Emilynoel83 to the instapop eye duo. She said it’s all you need because of a slanted design. They have purple handles and are part of a new instapop release which includes face brushes. I bought the set hoping they would be all I need for an eye look but I’m having a little trouble. Also I’m obsessed with navy eyeshadow. Can you recommend your picks for matte, satin and shimmers - ideally affordable?
@@Mariakayc I think it's because navy is equated with the 1990s when it was popular so beauty companies are avoiding it. But, I've noticed it's slowly coming back. I think it's wonderful framing for warm tones shadows.
1969Vanessa G well that makes sense! I was in the thick of makeup in the 90s in my 20s!!!! But let’s hope for a comeback ! Luckily I have an old borghese palette w a few blues but not a dark navy. I also think like purple you can look like you have a black eye if done wrong!
I cant use the buffing brush for foundation. It's not dense enough, because it's a brush meant to be used with powders. I tried it and I put it down very quickly since it was so inept at the task. The expert face brush applies liquids better for me, its dense enough to move the product and stipple it on in certain areas. I wonder if your foundations are more liquidy thy han mine and that's why it works for you? Idk, the brush is not dense so foundation travels up the bristles and thy the bristles gunk up together.
Clump Emergency!!! :D I think naming a brush type can be useless and dare I say debilitating ;/ at times, especially if customers think that's only the purpose of the brush. We all have different shaped features so definitely there's not a one-size-fits-all brush. Name the brush Erma or Irving, but don't call it a crease brush because it won't fit into my crease! ; ) RT does make some work horse brushes. How do you think they compare to EcoTools, who seem to have been available for a long time.
Switch to the Expert face brush. The buffing brush is not dense enough; it's meant for powders. Check to see what foundations she uses that are able to be blended with a powder brush. I imagine they are liquidy ones and maybe mousses.
Hello, just watched your video, and I would like to know where did you order the flawless face set and enhanced eye set with the new color scheme. The real techniques and ULTA websites still have the original colored sets. Great video, thank you for your thoughts about these brushes. I totally agree you.
They're actually press ons (they're all I wear)! These are from imPress, and I threw away the box before looking at the style. But, they're similar to one called "pop star" on their website!
I have quite a bit of the Real Techniques, e.l.f, Sigma and Moda brushes but i have to constantly restock my inventory due to my twenty two and my twenty year old not too far behind her going crazy over Colour Pop , Makeup Revolution, Milani eyeshadows and face products. 🙄😑😢
Yes I don't like the new eye fluff brush. The pink one it's too fluffy along with their standard crease brush. The original purple ones were better. They got lazy and QT went downhill.
Their last sponge set I got were a mess...then their social media team was to reach out to me after they sent me a generic email...that said we hand cut stuff so sorry you got the shit sponge!!! Back to Beauty Blenders!!
Unfortunately the real technique brushes I got .. were one of the scratchiest and irritating brushes I’ve ever used. Don’t trust spending the money on them anymore :/
Interesting! When did you buy them? I have noticed a difference in texture between the old (original brushes) vs those that are newer. While I didn’t think the old were scratchy, the new are definitely softer!
Thank you so much for putting this video together! I was having the hardest time trying to wade through all of their brushes and figure out what I needed and this was very helpful!
Just got my Everyday Essentials Set and I love it so much! And it looks prettier now than their previous look. Love RT brushes!
I own every iteration of the RT brushes and I love them. I reach for my RT brushes more than anything else. I ❤️ them!!!
I agree real technique brushes are amazing for the price. I have the essential base set but Instead of the square found brush I have the flat foundation brush also have the blush brush ,the sculpting brush and the powder brush from the metal line
This video was SO helpful, thank you!
I have a bunch of these brushes and I'm happy. The deluxe crease brush is too big for my hooded eyes but is my go to for concealer!!
I love Real Techniques. Their blush, powder, and setting brushes are my favorites!
Hello! I see nothing haven't posted on tjis channel in at least à year. Do you know what happened ??
I have been using the SAME deluxe crease brush to set my eye primer w/bone color shadow for yrs. I press it in. It works better than any other brush I've ever tried.
I have both sets and really enjoy them. Thanks so much for your tips 🙌
I love this concept. Would you do this type of video with other drugstore brush brands?
I love my RT brushes. I just bought the Rebel set and couldn’t be happier. The majority of my brush collection is RT.
I love my RT paddle brushes: Foundation and small shadow. I don't care for sponges but the paddle does a great job blending liquid foundation. The small shadow brush is xlnt for the outer corner as well as lid, and crease too if I'm not feeling dramatic.

I bought some when they were having their BOGO event at Ulta too! It was SUCH a steal!

I just got these from Walmart. $20 for the whole set (with the sponge) and I love them!
Their sets are SUCH a great deal!
@@BaileyB Hello! I see nothing has been posted on this channel in at least à year. Do you know what might have happened ??
This was so helpful!!!!!
Gracias por tu vídeo tan explicativo! Necesitaba saber cómo era el set de brochas de real techniques y tú lo hiciste a la perfección.
I love the Powder Bleu set. I wish they made more in the line.
love this video thank u
Thank you
Love RT...thank you for this review!!
Thank you for watching!
Love your reviews
I use RT brushes for my face and cream eyeshadows. For powder eyeshadow I far prefer my Eco Tools brushes, Japonesque and Morphe brushes.

Thank you for watching!
Thanks for sharing! 😘😘
Super informative video. Thank you! Now I just have to make a decision. I just want them all, I want them all, I want them all and I want them now!
That big crease brush is AWESOME for a very light transition shade though!
You are a good teacher!
You really made me get a good idea on what kit I need .. thsnk u
Great video, Bailey. A few year's ago there was a trio of duo fiber brushes, love them.
Yes. They are great with highly pigmented products.
I got their BOGO free offer last month at Ulta...OBSESSED WITH THE SET!!
Hi me too but I must admit I bought all additions , I am addicted to the collections I have three sets of limited additions plus the basics , they are gorgeous I love them , I have started buying my niece her own collection , the setting brushes are fab I have three of those too !
I did say I was addicted ! The smaller brush I use it for concealer it’s really good !
Can you review the new-ish Real Techniques Light Layer collection! Curious to know your thoughts ! ☺️
I need that buffing foundation brush! I hope my Walmart carries that set ..I love your nail polish by the way! What color is it?
the second set you showed I have that but in nz the handles orange wish it was that pinkish colour
Brushes looks so soft
My favorite of their eye brushes is the all purpose crease brush that comes in the set. For my eye shape, I use it in the crease and on the lid; basically, I can do an entire eye look with just that one brush. I also like the detailer brush for applying shadow as liner.

Plus, I have kind of a small face, and it's just too big to apply blush for me. Works better as a face powder brush, but it's not my favorite for that either.
What lipstick are you wearing? It looks so good 😫
I just ordered them from amazon
I’m going to buy the eye kit and the buffer brush kit
I have brought a bronzer brush eye duo and sponge
I love them so will invest in those other kits as I want 2 sets of eye brushes for light and dark make it easier x

I wish they sold more brushes individually!
Are the new designed RT brushes different than the ones with the older design?
Im an beginning to build my brush stash and I really want an powder, bronzer, blush and contour brushes 😐 Do you know any recommendations?
💖
the lip color !🥺🥺🥺may I ask what's on your lips?

Looking to get this kit £15 was going to get 1 brush for £7 then I saw this kit made more sense tk get another eye brush for darker colours
Just got mine, the price was not bad at all! That’s because one brush was around $10 and the set was $20 with the sponge and four brushes
i want these brushes plz guide me
from pakistan
Great video.
Have you used other brushes? How did you choose a brand, there seems so much out there? 💋💅💄

They aren't 😩

Can I just say: I only just got the brand new style powder brush AND it's absolutely beautiful and so much better than the original 8yr old one... xXx
Gillian Wills
What is the name of the brand new style
@@tekkykitty It's just the "Powder Brush" with the new style handle with 201 also stamped on it xXx
Is the stores are available in India
Use Google

The real techniques and ULTA websites still have the original colored sets. Great video, thank you for your thoughts about these brushes. I totally agree you.
I bought them in store at Ulta! Thanks so much for watching :)
Thank you for letting me know. I will be on the look out for them.
In the netherlands they have less real techniques products, so I have to buy them from a deutsch (not dutch) website
Hey! What nail paint is that?! 💖😮
They're actually press ons (they're all I wear)! These are from imPress, and I threw away the box before looking at the style. But, they're similar to one called "pop star" on their website!
Bailey B oh,thank you! They look really pretty! 😊

These brushes are buy 2 get 1 free (each box is $19.99) at ulta. I used a 20% coupon and got 16 brushes and the blender for $35!!!!
What brush do you use for applying primer?
most people don't use brushes for primer...
My only brushes that ever broke (quickly as well) are from real techniques.
I seen the blue brushes at walgreens
I don't understand why they don't sell that buffing brush separately 🙄
Yes I don't like the new eye fluff brush. The pink one it's too fluffy along with their standard crease brush. The original purple ones were better. They got lazy and QT went downhill.

I bought the fake ones 😭
How do you know they’re fake?
Girl your shiny, you need to blend and your blush is to much for you. You're pretty girl don't need all that make up just saying!!!
Omg okay good it’s not just me I started looking at her and I’m like why is she judging these brushes when she can’t really do makeup
